    No mammals from me this week - so I linked up my WBW post.

  17. I especially like that Wood Duck with its reflection. They (and Painted Buntings) have my vote for our most beautiful birds.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Marsh wrens are very hard to photograph, at least for me.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Wood Ducks are one of my favorites! They have such gorgeous colors - both sexes. The little Yellowthroat is beautiful!

  20. Good Morning Eileen. Thanks for hosting the party today and I'm so pleased to join in.

    Shame the Robin has lost all the summer colour but the Wood Duck and the Yellowthroat sure make up for that.

    Enjoy your weekend!

  28. I thought I had a great picture of 6 male cardinals, some females and many others at the feeder one day this week! I was going to join you today with the picture but it was too far away. . . looks more like 6 red dots . . .

  39. I did indeed enjoy your birds, Eileen. It's nice to see that we share Wood Ducks and robins, each in our parts of the world. We don't see yellow-throated warblers.. just the yellow-rumped ones here.. at least as far as I know (not expert). Love the marsh wren. You have such sharp eyes! Many thanks for hosting.

    ReplyDelete

  54. The wood duck is at the top of my wish list -- I've never seen one (I know there are some in Oregon as well as probably Florida and in between, but somehow, never where I am. Surprised that little robin is still up there!


    Thanks so much for hosting.

  55. Love seeing all of the critters on Saturday... You have a great group!!!!

    I wish I had/knew Warblers. I'm sure we have them in our area --but I just don't know much about them. Such beautiful little birds.

    Hope you get your computer problems fixed soon.

    Getting ready for another cold blast on Thursday!!!! Looks like winter is coming for sure... VERY busy in the yard!
    Hugs,

  56. Great Pond shots!!
    I don't remember what that green miniature plant is called Eileen, that sits on top of the water?? We would scoop it out since it blocks the sun from the lower levels of the pond!! Love the Wood Duck!
